Coldplay is a British alternative rock band formed in London in 1996. The band's singer/pianist Chris Martin, guitarist Jonny Buckland, bassist Guy Berryman and drummer Will Champion, met at University College London and came together from 1996 to 1998. During these two years, the band changed names from Pectoralz to Starfish and, finally, to Coldplay. Creative director and former manager Phil Harvey is often referred to as the fifth member by the band.

[Verse]
BmG Smoke is risin' from the houses BmG People buryin' their dead BmG I asked somebody what the time is BmGD But time doesn't matter to them yet GBmD People talking without speaking GBmD Tryin' to take what they can get GBm I ask you if you remember EmG Prospekt how could I forget
[Pre-Chorus]
D Drums! Bm Here it comes! G Don't you wish your life could be as simple (G) As a fish swimming round in a barrel EmG When you've got the gun D Oh and I run Bm Here it comes! G We're just two little figures in a soup bowl (G) Tryin to get beyond a kind of control EmG But I wasn't one
[Chorus]
AG Now here I lie on my own in a separate sky AG And here I lie on my own in a separate sky A I don't wanna die G On my own here tonight AG But here I lie on my own in a separate sky...
